Sarah Sze

Forging an association between sculpture and architectural experience, Sarah Sze stacks, assembles, glues, piles, and positions a host of everyday objects to create astounding installations. Behind these organized yet chaotic labyrinthine systems hides a metaphor for the city, and the shifting, improvised nature of the urban fabric.
The catalog of the exhibition Sarah Sze, presented at the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain in 1999, offers a chance to journey through the artist’s multiple creations and discover the scope and minute detail of the gigantic installation Everything Must Converge, specially commissioned by the Fondation Cartier for the exhibition—a sprawling sculpture that perfectly espoused the architecture of its surroundings.
